Just saw a super lame post lmao
Basically some rando was telling everyone how it’s “impossible” for a new witch to create a grimoire because “grimoires are only for tried and true magic” or whatever. “Don’t you DARE use your grimoire like a journal”. Real uppity shit. Like, what a lame outlook to have lmao. Imagine being elitist with what other witches do with their grimoires?? As if you’re ever gonna see them? LMAO. it’s so strange to me how people have so many rules for things that don’t effect them in the slightest.
If you’re a new witch/baby witch (whatever you like to be called), and you’ve seen that post or anything similar, block that person and keep doin’ you. No one can tell you what you’re capable of. And there’s no right or wrong way to create a grimoire 🙄 take it from someone who’s been around the block, these kind of things aren’t life and death in the grand scheme. They matter as much as you want to matter. Write yourself notes in your grimoire, edit it, change it, doodle! Sometimes witchcraft is trial and error, and if you want to record those trials and errors in your fancy book, go off.
this is the kind of shit that I loathe about these communities. I don’t understand why but for whatever reason a LOT of people with incredibly huge and equally fragile egos seem to be attracted to these spiritual communities. People really just be sayin the most asinine shit and other people take it as fact for some reason. Instead of giving good constructive advice for how to start a grimoire, they just turn on the snobbery and try to make people feel bad about their practice.
Its also fine to have opinions and pet peeves, but again, this doesn’t affect you lmao. And to go about it in such a high-and-mighty way is so fucking gross honestly. Just say you’re insecure and/or boring and go.
